Transplantation

Transplantation could refer to any of the following:

  • In medicine, organ transplant refers to the replacement of a defective organ in a body with one from another body.
  • In agriculture. transplantation refers to the process of uprooting plants from one location and planting them elsewhere. This is usually done in paddy fields to reduce the amount of water and other resources required in the initial stages, and to weed off unhealthy plants early, thus increasing the yields.
